Ming Yue's expression did not change, he stood there, still maintaining the posture of supporting Chu Zhaoyi.

"Concubine De Niangniang, this is saying that the third brother is not close to Niangniang?"

Concubine De was stunned for a moment, and her face suddenly turned ugly: "What nonsense are you talking about?" ”

"Huh. Isn't that what Concubine De meant? After all, the more he thinks he is close to his mother and concubine, and to his father, queen and mother. Come to think of it, it's because the third brother is not close enough to Concubine De. ”

The owner of the birthday, Concubine Xian, sat at the top and smiled slightly, as if she had not seen their fighting at all.

Concubine De's face was ugly, and the third prince Ming Hengteng stood up and was about to speak. There were already eunuchs singing outside.

"The emperor has arrived, and the queen has arrived."

………………

When Xia Qingtong turned around, he saw two palace maids. One on the left and one on the right, just blocking the door.

Her hand tightened tightly where she had hidden the small box.

The other party was just a palace maid, she took a deep breath and pretended to walk outside casually.

It's just that before she could reach the door, she was stopped by two palace maids.

"Who are you? How dare you trespass into the Forbidden Palace? ”

The Forbidden Palace? This is the Forbidden Palace? What do you mean? Cold Palace?

Xia Qingtong glanced around, thinking that the tyrant of the six princes was really hateful. Didn't even mention it?

As soon as her wrist tightened, she retracted her gaze, and the two palace maids just now restrained her one on the left and one on the right.

"You let me go. I'm not—"

Xia Qingtong struggled a few times, but he couldn't break free at all.

The two palace maids escorted her to the door, and there stood a woman in a yellow palace dress outside, who looked like she should be some concubine in this palace.

owed to the woman in the palace costume.

"Zhaorong Niangniang, we just found out that this cheap maid broke into the forbidden palace. Please also ask Zhaorong Niangniang to dispose of it. ”

? Who do you scold? Who's a?

"Bold and cheap, dare to trespass on the Forbidden Palace? It's not a small amount of courage. ”

Lin Zhaorong looked at the woman in front of him, judging from the outfit, this person was obviously not from the palace. But so what?

She looked at Xia Qingtong with a vicious face: "Trespassing into the Forbidden Palace is a capital crime, come and send her to the Inner Prison." ”

Ouchi Prison? I went, and when I heard it, it wasn't a good place.

Xia Qingtong's face turned white, this would be really a little panicked. The sixth prince of the cheating father said that he would pick her up in two hours, it would be almost two hours, right?

The cranky thoughts in her mind were only for a moment, and she was restrained by her hands, and the strength of the two palace maids was very great. But in front of her, she could only deal with it carefully. Force yourself to cheer up.

"Zhaorong Niangniang, the courtier is not from the palace, but she made a mistake for a while. Please forgive me, raise your noble hand, and let go of the courtier. ”

Not from the palace?

Lin Zhaorong raised his eyebrows, and the malice in his eyes was unabated: "It's not from the palace, why are you in the palace?" Don't tell me that you're here for Concubine Xian's birthday party. You must know that the Yongle Palace of Concubine Xian Niangniang is in two directions. How can you say that it is wrong? ”

"Qi Yu Zhaorong Niangniang, the courtier's daughter is the daughter of the Marquis of Jianping. I didn't come to attend Concubine Xian's birthday banquet. The eighth princess was sick, so she asked the courtiers to come in and talk to her. Because I was in a hurry just now, I accidentally went in the wrong direction. It wasn't intentional to break into the Forbidden Palace. ”

"The people of the Marquis of Ping's Mansion? Are you the daughter of the Marquis of Jianping? ”

"Yes, the courtier's daughter Xia Qingtong is the daughter of the Marquis of Jianping, and she ranks third in the family."

Xia Qingtong lowered his head, his tone was humble, and he tried to narrow his presence.

"Come to talk to the eighth princess?" Lin Zhaorong frowned slightly, the Yuehua Palace where the eighth princess was located was indeed very close to here: "Since this is the case, then you will still accompany the eighth princess, right?" ”

As soon as she raised her hand, the two palace maids let go of Xia Qingtong's hand.

Xia Qingtong didn't look up, half-bent his knees, still owed.

"Xie Zhaorong Niangniang."

Xia Qingtong, who had saluted, tried his best to walk outside at a normal pace.

The palace gate was not far in front, and seeing that he could go out after walking about ten steps, Lin Zhaorong behind him suddenly shouted.

"Wait."

Xia Qingtong stopped, she didn't want to turn around, but Lin Zhaorong didn't want to give her this opportunity.

"You just said you went to the wrong place?"

"Yes." Xia Qingtong was forced to turn around, his head still lowered.

That Lin Zhaorong stared at the top of Xia Qingtong's hair and suddenly snorted.

"When people outside the palace enter the palace, someone will lead the way. Who brought you here? Why don't you have a single waiter around? ”

Xia Qingtong was slightly stunned, and reacted quickly: "It's my own internal urgency, I walked too fast, and I left the palace people behind——"

Lin Zhaorong sneered: "You walked too fast and left the palace people behind?" All right. Since they are so poor, find them out, and it seems that this errand is not wanted. ”

Xia Qingtong didn't have time to respond, and Lin Zhaorong took a step forward.

"What about the two palace people who brought you?"

Xia Qingtong couldn't answer, and Lin Zhaorong took another step forward.

"You said that you were in an emergency, how could you come to the inner room?"

Xia Qingtong's lips moved, and he wanted to explain a thing or two, but Lin Zhaorong didn't want to hear it anymore.

"Someone. This person's behavior is suspicious, you escort her to the Internal Affairs Office and hand her over to the governor of Ji. Let Mr. Ji interrogate and interrogate him properly. ”

When he said this, Lin Zhaorong's expression was even more merciful than before.

Manager Ji is notoriously difficult to talk to in the palace. Especially after the position is high, his perverted hobbies can't be suppressed.

He is most fond of interrogating prisoners with all kinds of perverted punishments. Xia Qingtong fell into the hands of Chief Manager Ji, and the end would definitely not be better than her being sent to the inner prison.

Xia Qingtong saw that when the palace maid was talking about Manager Ji in Lin Zhaorong just now, her body trembled subconsciously.

She could almost immediately conclude that this manager Ji was not a good person.

"Zhaorong Niangniang, the courtiers are definitely not ill-intentioned people. It's really just a misunderstanding, please-"

"Why are you still stunned? Don't take people down yet. Lin Zhaorong didn't want to hear her explanation: "Whether it's a misunderstanding or you have ulterior motives, you can explain it to Manager Ji." ”

This time, it wasn't the two palace people behind Lin Zhaorong who did it, but two guards outside.

They set up Xia Qingtong on the left and right, and went in the direction of the Internal Affairs Office.

Their strength was much greater than that of the previous palace maids, and Xia Qingtong felt as if his arm was clamped by iron tongs, and it hurt terribly.

While being escorted out of the palace gate, she looked at the two palace maids who had just sent her, and the shadows were gone.

Not only that, but the person who said that he would come to pick her up in two hours before didn't see it.

Xia Qingtong was in a hurry, she tried to struggle, but she couldn't win two tall guards at all.

She was carried forward almost half-dragged. It dragged on for a long time, and no one was seen.

Xia Qingtong wailed in his heart: Isn't the sky going to kill me?
